A wonderful dog story comes from Lexington, Missouri. A little boy, five years old, wandered away from home, and was sought and advertised in vain. At length, after some days, he was found in the woods, apparently under the special protection of two dogs. They had made the child a bed of leaves, and knowing that he must be hungry, they had caught.a'rabbit for him. When fouad; so the story runs —the little fellow was regaling himself with raw meat. This is not half the story; why did they not cook it? ■ .. Both in one Taie.—"l deny the charge," said Catherine Thomas, as she stood before the desk. "I bave not read the charge yet," replied his Honor. " Don't make any difference—l deny it, she said, looking as determined as a grindstone. *• This warrant says you were drunk in Atwater-street." " I deny the charge." " And the officer says you were brought here on a sled, being incapable of locomotion." " I deny the charge " "So does Tleecher," replied his Honor, as he turned to his apple, " but it won't help either of you very much."—Detroit tree Press.
